Summary/Abstract: The school/family relations have undergone dramatic changes within the last six years in the Czech Republic. These concern the very power distribution between the school and the family, the structure of these relations, as well as the challenges a new socio-economic climate brought both to schools, and to families. More than before the school and the family need to find ways of their collaboration. The search for these ways and their development is not easy, though. In this paper authors report on their research (carried out by both quantitative and qualitative methods) which was focused on the current state of basic school/family relations, possibilities and hindrances to their development, and desires and efforts of the sides involved.
